Chorus: KingTrey
You know niggas always late
Why y'all niggas always late to the party?
You know niggas always late

Verse 1: KingTrey
Look, if I'm being real we was the first to the party
We got this motherfucka started
Who invented culture? We invented rock
We invented hip-hop. Who the king of pop?
They say niggas always late to the party
You know niggas always late

Verse 2: Mick Jenkins
Gave motherfuckas the mathematics early
Gave motherfuckas the bath habits needed
Can't come clean, the past is too dirty
How do whole numbers and fractions get evеn?
Actions misleadin'
Niggas bite cuz they actually still teethin'
Nеver use your neck when you speakin' to me
White gloves if you reach, be a deacon, my nigga
That's the least you can be
We been preachin' to choirs
Sing 'bout the truth, they gon' feature the liars
The gleam on my tooth from the gold on my molar
The only cap that a nigga know, I was seen in the fire
We a couple bad negros
Act like you seen the Messiah
Ghetto superstar no Mya
Get a new guitar, way the strings gettin' pulled
And the past get accord
Catch me out in traffic need the basket and foul
Rarely pass anymore, just skip through the lane
White lady mad 'cuz I did skip the line
Sorry, not sorry I got in this bitch late

Chorus: KingTrey, Kota The Friend
You know niggas always late
Why y'all niggas always late to the party?
You know niggas always late
Why y'all niggas always late to the party?
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Verse 3: Kota the Friend
Peace of mind for me and mines
A nigga gon' peep and read between the lies, yeah
And I can tell yout ain't never seen a nigga with nerve
That demand what he really deserve
Gotta be free, do what I please
I don't want fame, nigga, give me my fee
I don't want praise 'cuz I got a whole team
And we got a whole play, everybody gon' see
Yeah, black boys breakin' out of the concrete
Niggas gon' make the blueprint and they gon' copy
And then you see the label drop me
Put me on the shelf to stop me
But you can't stop me
Bitch, you can try to block me
Nothin' you can but watch me
I'm in the rockys, hatin' when you can't even find me
Still a Brookly nigga, don't try me, yeah

Chorus: KingTrey
You know niggas always late
Why y'all niggas always late to the party?

Verse 4: KingTrey
Uhh, yeah
Haughty with how they movin'
And knowing that we influenced it
People don't know the half of it
Let's get down to the truth of it
Just try to find a wave they ain't hopped on
Still gon' say we was looking at the clock wrong
You know niggas always late
Niggas always late
Niggas always late
You know niggas always late
Niggas always late
Niggas always late
Niggas always late
You know niggas always late
